Volumouse provides you a quick and easy way to control the sound volume on your system - simply by rolling the wheel of your wheel mouse. It allows you to define a set of rules for determining when the wheel will be used for changing the sound volume. When the conditions that you define are not satisfied, your mouse wheel will be used for the regular scrolling tasks exactly as before.

It can adjust several sound settings as well as brightness, just choose a key to combine with the mouse scroller(the middle scroller in the middle of your mouse that can move the page down or up) I have no cons at all about this program There are 13 awesome settings you can adjust! Master Volume,Wave, SW Synth,CD Player,Microphone,Phone,Auxilary, Line In 1 or 2, HeadPhones,Wave In,Side,Window Transparency, =====================================And Screen Brightness============ ====================================================================

"Does what I want it to & no more! Great Product!" Doesn't over load the system with alot of useless junk. Does just what it is suppose to do and no more! Great product, easy to use! Even though I have it set to start when Windows starts some times it forgets and I have to start it manually. Hopefull the new update will take care of this problem. If not it's a small inconvience for a great product! Highly recommend it for ease of use and quality of product.

Best option I've ever seen to quickly and accurate control system volume. Low-profile, smart, and loads of ways to configure it to do exactly what you want. None. It's just that good. My keyboard volume control just isn't fast enough. The speaker volume knob just isn't precise enough. Volumouse does it perfectly. Spend some time with the options after you install it -- you can adjust how fast the volume adjusts, which keys activate the utility, and even set it as an override volume controller in media players that you specify. And, by selecting "Run in high priority," you even get instant volume control in high-end games! Well done and thank you!

Everything! Simple, low resources, and it just works! Very customizable. Works with Win7. It can control the left+right balance, and can be set to specific sound/recording devices. Use multiple hot keys combinations at the same time. Uh, let's see... old school interface -- who cares! Leave it to Microsoft to forget a shortcut key for the volume! On top of that, Microsoft Mouse 5000 doesn't have volume buttons, but they do for keyboards??? I selected Use Hot-keys instead of Mouse Wheel in the drop down wheel options. Then choose your hot keys by pressing the More tab. Assign mouse buttons to Alt+UP/Down, in Control Panel>mouse (if your mouse allows this) and you've got your volume buttons! Thank you at last! The hot keys can also be triggered with the keyboard and other devices.

Amazing program. It works just like it is supposed to and once you try it, you will miss it a lot if you go to a computer without it. Such a simple concept and something that could and should have been added to the OS long ago. Nirsoft is great as always.

Using the mouse wheel as a volume control is basically a good idea but... If you want to fine-tune the sound volume of your recording look for something else. The day after I had the bad idea to tell my wife and friends that I could copy old tapes from their cassettes to CD-ROMs I was flooded with musical relics for this purpose.Recording a track from a tape (or a mike) consists in a test-recording without saving the file, just for setting the recording sound level at the right value. Then the real recording-saving operation can take place.My recording tool is Audacity which displays in real time the "waves" of the sound during the recording. Bur Audacity cannot (on my Win XP machine, at least) control the sound that come from a tape player. The available controls are either the sound control of the tape player itself or Windows' Volume Control. None of those is satisfactory and I have tried Volumouse.With Volumouse:One has to roll the mouse wheel so as to start controlling the sound volume.This means that the volume has already been modified when the control begins to be operational, that is to say when the cursor that displays the vclume control pops up on the monitor.This cursor remains visible during one second maximum if the the mouse wheel is not activated. As a whole it looks like if a pilot had to modify the angle of the flaps on the wing before being able to control this angle and if the gauges showing the resulting motion of the aicraft disappeared within one second.Taking advantage of its well-sized cursor, the display of sound tuning % and the convenient mouse-wheel control, Volumouse would be better than Windows' Volume Control if the former adopts the immediate contol availability and the permanence of the cursor display of the latter.
